    Oregon, Washington, and most of the Northeast are fine.

    Just stay away from the South. This has always been good advice and remains good advice.

      Still, you get 10 min outside of a city in Oregon and you start seeing Trump signs

        The US divide is really less Blue vs. Red states and more rural vs urban areas.

        Same in Washington. You’re mostly safe along I-5 and WA-101 but towns outside of those two highways can get very conservative very fast.

        You have some pockets east of the mountains like Spokane and the tri cities that are slightly liberal but there’s a reason most of the Republican house representatives come from the east side of the state.

      This is urban vs rural more than anything and not state vs state. Because I’m sure there’s some dudes from Laramie Wyoming who would take offense that you didn’t lump them in with all the other bigots.

      Should a gay couple load up there family and move to Garfield Georgia? No probably not but what about Birmingham Alabama? Yeah that’d be fine.
